methods and focused research in diverse fields. DPU is known forAcademic Heritage, World Class Faculty, State-

community service thriving on our campuses. We believe that complete education is what makes a student self-

educated. To ensure this, greater emphasis is given on what student have learned and not necessarily what they

were taught.

What we have achieved so far is definitely commendable. But, I believe that there is still scope for us to becomebetter and to reach higher levels of academic excellence. I have no doubt that we will be able to achieve theseobjectives with cooperation from our faculties of various institutions, which include experienced, knowledgeableand caring mentors.
